Hey there gdom, congrats on finishing lesson 1, let's get started.

Starting with your super imposed lines you have moments where you are showing a lot of confidence, but a lot of your lines are showing a lot of wobbles meaning you are still trying to draw slowly and control the pen tip from start to finish. Remember that right now we focus on flow over accuracy as the latter can be much more easily developed with practice. A lot of the same goes for your ghosted lines - there's a substantial amount of wobble indicating not enough ghosting and use of the shoulder.

Moving on to your ellipses, these are for the most part fantastic! With your ellipses in planes you do a great job making contact with your plane edges at the right places to make the ellipse fit snugly within the bounds leaving no room for floating. Your tables of ellipses is the weak point in your ellipse section as you lose some confidence here (or maybe you did this one first and gained confidence later) and your ellipses aren't always packed tightly and there is room left for ambiguity, touched on here. With your funnels exercise you do a good job bisecting your ellipses with the axis meaning your minor axes are correctly aligned.

Moving on to your rough perspective boxes, I see you are trying to be mindful of the orientation of your boxes by making the horizontal lines parallel to the horizon and vertical lines perpendicular. You have some success and some that miss the mark a bit, and I think a big part of this is due to the scale you're drawing at. As a rule of thumb always draw as large as you can to give your brain more space to work. Your converging lines are right where we expect and as you practice your accuracy of these lines will improve. I see only one place where you redrew a line and remember - we draw in ink because we must respect line economy. We plan, ghost, and confidently execute each line only when we are ready to live with the results.

Now let's take a look at your rotated boxes. First off - wayyyy to small. Always draw as large as you can. It really does make everything easier and better for your brain and for using your shoulder at this stage. Just keep in mind that our only goal for students is to complete the exercise to the best of their abilities so they can be introduced to new types of spatial problems and solution methods so you did that and good job on you! There are a few things to point out regarding overall mechanics of the exercise:

• Rotation - you were not rotating your boxes but rather skewing them and pushing them over so give this gif some more attention and internalize how the rotation is driven by the vanishing points moving along the horizon line.

• You did a nice job packing your boxes together to utilize adjacent lines as perspective guides.=

• You kept things neat, but again because it's so small it still is hard to read visually.

At the end of the day though, you pushed through and didn't give up so good job there!

Finally, let's loook at your organic perspective. Ah, much larger, great to see! Your boxes themselves are off to a good start. Your perspective is developing and will continue to improve in the 250 box challenge. Your compositions have a lot of movement in them and your most succesful one is first frame of second page. This is because you hit all the beats for selling the illusion of 3d space: you have big forms in front for the eye to enter the frame, scaled down boxes to recede into the background, and overlapping your forms to fit it all together into one cohesive space. In a lot of your other frames your forms are very similar in scale so it falls kind of flat. Overall good start though.

With that, your lesson 1 is complete. As you move on to the box challenge stay mindful of drawing large - 5 to 6 boxes per page, and continue practicing lines and ellipses in warm ups. Keep up the good work.
